To try and a tiny piece of fact to a very subjective argument, Rovers are ranked 70 in the UEFA club coefficient rankings.

How much relevance that has is debatable though.

How can we ranked below clubs like Sporting Braga, Club Brugge or Rapid Bucuresti? Even better, Bolton is ranked 52 :angry2:

I think the table gives too high a weightage to teams playing in europe.

Dindane already had medical with Le Rovers.

Dindane has undergone a medical at Rovers and wants to stay in England

Nicko?

I would really welcome Dindane at Rovers. Seeing him at Portsmouth with his pace and technique makes me think he is almost perfect in our 4-3-3 together with Olsson and Kalinic.

Dindane - Kalinic - Olsson would be a very good frontline.

Probably not, because only a couple of million of it would be used to buy anyone else, who wouldn't be as good as these guys anyway.

Well, we used a small fraction of the huge payout from selling Santa Cruz, Warnock and Derbyshire to buy N'zonzi for a pittance, so what is to say that we couldn't use a fraction of the 20 mill (totally daft figure obviously, but for example) to buy someone as good?

I've said it once already i think this is all paper talk , and i can understand why people on here are feeling spikey to all this , but seriously , i could see the positives out of the sale , N'Zonzi could suffer 2nd season syndrome in hindsight i wished we had sold Mccarthy and RSC after their first seasons , ok we got a decent fee for RSC but he was never the same player and Jones is an promising talent .. promisiing thats all , he's miles away from the finished article , he may not even fulfill that potential , i think anything over £10m each plus add-ons we should take

I am not sure I am the one who knows nothing about football. You want good teams with non-big players? Try Fulham for one. You know, eliminated Juventus, playing in a Europa Cup semi-final tonight?

Or how about the past few winners of that competition - Zenit Petersburg, CSKA Moscow, Shakhtar Donetsk? Big superstar players you say? Greece winning Euro 2004? Just how many players in total from all those teams would even make it to a Premiership bench?

With discipline, loyalty, hard work and skill (looking for such players is not the same thing as recruitng season ticket-holders, that is a completely stupid assertion) you can achieve great things. It's written on our badge, in case you don't know.

We don't need "worldclass superstars" like Santa Cruz using us as a stepping stone for a season or two before taking the ridiculous money of a rich club and wasting away in their reserves. We need players like Tugay, who want to work hard and give it their all for us.

The flaw in your logic here is that if Chelsea or Man Utd or liverpool etc wanted any of Fulham's players, or indeed Tugay when he was at Rovers, they would buy them. Zamora etc. are not going to stay.

The players are not at Fulham because of loyalty. They are there because the bigger clubs have not elected to be interested in them. The deciding factor will be whether any of the big teams decide they fancy them or not.

The only way those 4 would start together next season is if we had MASSIVE injury problems.

Not sure about that. NZonzi and Olsson are already starters. Hoilett is expected to make big strides. I admit Linganzi is an unknown and we do need experience in the centre somewhere, prefurably in a play maker.

That might be true for some players, but if you're saying it's true for all, then I don't see what would be the point at all, if we're nothing but filler material, a training/feeder club that's only purpose is to provide players and an occasional challenge to the big clubs.

How are Fulham fans supposed to react to their triumph last night? By accepting that this is a fortunate achievement by a group of mercenaries who are forced to wear the shirt because they are unwanted or unneeded by bigger clubs, or by celebrating it as the greatest night in their history and praising the heroes that brought them this joy? Because the two don't quite go together.

Mohammed Tchite from Racing Santander. Might be a good signing.

How do you pronounce that exactly?

Does he play like he sounds?

Would anyone have that name on the back of their shirt? I might be tempted, actually!

Great post and very true, if the big boys come knocking with megabucks, they move on!
